@@MangaHorse wow Manga Horse, hitting us with quality animation to enlighten our emotions!! I wanna say I really love that line because I feel the same way about Reiner. He could not accept losing the fight against the pure-turned-jaw Titan when the four kids initially invaded paradis, which, in hindsight, would've worked better for the planet entirely if they simply went back home, got in trouble, the warrior program would be questioned because they killed a kid, and honestly maybe even a peaceful interaction between the outside world would've resulted. But no. Reiner wanted to be a hero.. and sadly.. not knowing better, the butterfly effect resulted in the killing of the entire city he grew up in. Yeah, despite his actions he remained alive to see everyone he loves die because of his ignorance, but I don't really feel like he's at fault. But as the symbolic manifestation of Marleyan propaganda, a "Marleyan/American hero," he really prolonged the cycle of hate in the worst possible way, towards the extreme climax of Eren getting pushed so start the rumbling. Reiner moved forward, Eren moved forward. both raised by a society that lied to them and both thinking they were saving the world by fighting their "enemy," which is a term used by propaganda and military for violence where it really isn't necessary, especially considering how possible it is for people to get along without that mentality, just like Paradis did with their blissful ignorance. When two people like that come together, and they did, they're bound to realize that they're just humans doing good for themselves.. but unable to connect peacefully because of the history or propaganda. Though, because AoT is our story, we want Reiner to suffer just enough but because he isn't really a bad guy, he's getting to live it out alongside Eren to the end. The paths truly connected all the Titans to that final battle in that moment, one last time before Eren dies with 3 Titan abilities, and with no previous person dying that way, I wonder how those powers will be transferred. Indeed, Eren dying and losing the Founding Titan, Attack Tiran, AND Warhammer Titan, effectively ends the most powerful three Titan abilities that are also rooted in hatred. Systematic War (warhammer). Violence (attack).Manipulation (founding). 3/9 or 1/3 of the Titan abilities with no one next to inherit them. I think the remaining shifters can live long lives after Eren dies because he was the "devil" having all these powerful abilities that he desperately wanted to die with as many as possible to close the cycle of cannibalism. Crazy stuff here guys
@@Oddie99000 No. They would've likely fed all three kids to new candidates and repeated the attempt. We're talking about a country who sent wave after wave of scouting ships to the island and were surprised every time they didn't come back, only to send more. Reiner and Eren moved forward in a world incapable of moving forward. Marley's greed and hatred locked them in a cycle that they repeated over and over and over again, first started by the very people who oppressed them, and now they oppress. So no. No one would care that an Eldian child died on Paradis anymore than they cared when Grisha's sister was killed. Eldians were lesser than dirt to them. They would have destroyed all three children. Reiner would've been the priority, but as soon as they had viable candidates to replace the other two, they'd be gone. Reiner was no less valuable, no matter how they set him up through the other kids. He beat out HUNDREDS of children competing for those final slots of training. Likewise, the Warrior program continued even though Marcel died and Annie and Bertholdt were unaccounted for (as they didn't know what happened to either). It's clear that Zeke and Reiner got some real shit for the losses incurred, but because they had valuable information and had recovered the Jaw Titan, and no candidates were likely ready, they were given their titles. Titles that the candidates, other Warriors and Eldians could ooh and aah at, but ultimately meant nothing unless the Marleyan military felt like it. So in reality, Reiner made the correct call. Not just for himself, but for Annie and Bertholdt. Rather than be considered defunct products that couldn't operate in the face of adversity (the loss of the Jaw), they pressed forward and they operated to their highest capacity. He MITIGATED the punishment by forcing them all to stay. They lived longer than they would have had they gone home and got caught in the same cycle Marley was locked in.
OMG thank you ☺️ thank is so nice of you ❤️ The truth is that some people have told me that they hated my voice, accent etc...😅 But I still want to offer them an alternative because obviously I can’t change my voice 😊 But again, thank you for your kind words, people like you always give me so much more motivation 🤗
@@soldecle wanna know something sadder? In the scene where Annie,Riener, and Pieck are holding the creature they start to get eaten by titans but not just any titans. Connie ane Jean are attacking Riener, Annie is getting is getting her face grabbed by Riener's mom and her race get's pulled till she starts crying, pieck is getting her body bit as she tries and keep the creature still
@@angeltheangel2088 I kinda felt bad for reiner. but at the same time justice has been made. I mean, connie had his whole village killed too. those poor people didn't deserve that. and that poor woman who was getting eaten slowly by a titan, that was probably someone she knew who was eating her. anyways, the titan shifters had that coming.
in s2 when eren finally used the founding titan he also told mikasa he would keep wrapping the scarf on her as much as she wanted- maybe relating to the alternate realities or just being an odd thing to say at that moment.
No you are actually right! At least in my opinion The wrapping of the scarf is also a hint of repetition in this story, and now we can assume it really happens over and over again There are also a lot more references, I only addressed a couple in this video because it was already way too long and I didn’t won’t to kill everyone from boredom 😅
@@adinhodzic5455 no Mikasa's ideal is only the house and the place read the tweet again it says Mikasa's ideal dream is panel 35 if i remember correctly correct me if i'm wrong. Everything else is Eren's selfish dream of living a good life but we know that this was never gonna happen
@@MangaHorse no..nothing is boring..I need more explanation 😭😭 I just finished reading the manga starting from the end of season 4 cuz I can't dodge spoilers anymore. So that's why I'm now binge watching videos bout Mikasa and Eren cuz my heart is 💔
When you realize all those jokes you made about Mikasa being the main character of the series after s1 ep5 end up not being jokes lol. It's been her story all along.
How....is this her story??? do you Mikasa Stan's sometimes get ahead of yourselves. She is nice character but saying this is her story and driving it when she had been non existant in several arcs, pit to the back burner despite her being FMC......is not it.
This is what it looks like at this point, nothing got to do with simping Mikasa, it just seems that her character by now has a very good chance to pull off this twist But of course we will all find out for sure tommorow 🤗
I've had a similar theory since the chapter came out, I watched the OVA and actually, at 15:06, when Mikasa comes back to the "original reality", it's not really the original reality, before Mikasa goes on to live in another reality, when she's staring at the butterfly, notice how the pomegranate is intact? but when Mikasa comes back at the end of the OVA, the pomegranate is not intact (like the original anime), meaning this reality where Eren is a shifter, is also an alternate one. Mikasa is going through all the possible realities, but this is the final one, because after coming to this reality, she decides to live on even if Eren is dead, which is why I think this is the only reality that she is able to kill him (in chapter 138) because she already let go of him when she thought the Santa Titan ate him, this is the reality that breaks the loop. I tried looking for other people thinking the same thing but it's such a small detail I don't think many people noticed it, I'd like to hear your thoughts if you see this.
@@freshkingdior2351 It's apparent at this point that Eren can peek into the future (or past realities) through the paths, so Eren must have chosen the path with the best possible outcome for everyone, and this one happened to be the one where he insults Mikasa, and beats Armin to a pulp.
@@aboody006 yea he saw the other realities and this was the best option hes doing it for everyone but he doesnt have full control but now ever since his teamup wit ymir both him and ymir are in control 1000% he had no choice it was the only way think about it if u dont go on wit the plan not only your friends but your entire race will get wiped out an to add on too the madness u have a girl u love resetting time over and over because she just wont let u die/rest in peace so u cant be with her no matter how much u want to
That’s very interesting! My theory was that Ymir had a specific goal of freedom, and every time Mikasa and Eren failed to attain the ultimate goal, their reality was reset (like Groundhog Day) doomed to repeat it again and again and again until they finally were able to get it right and free Ymir. Every time a slightly different choice was made, Mikasa got a headache, and the dreams were visions of their many failed realities before. Since the attack Titan has time abilities, I think it makes sense.
I wonder if that’ll be explained in the last chapter (assuming if you’re correct). There’s so much to explain with one chapter I feel like we’re going to have to interpret a lot of shit at the end kinda annoying but I believe it’ll be fine simply because Isayama is a genius storyteller.
I actually don't think so. See when owl was going to give the titan he said: you have to do it to save Armin and Mikasa, then saying: huh? Whose memories are those I wonder. It was all written since the start, it had to happen and so freedom was a ironical term coming from Eren the fated ragnarok.
Damn, seeing Jean dying was heartbreaking. That hero could've stayed in Paradise and just move up the ranks and have a wife and kid as he daydreamed of before Hanji came along... That man was a real Scout till the end.
Jean is simply AWESOME, no other word for him honestly, great character, sad death, but I will also include Connie which was such a tragic character that always tried to smile There were both great characters and soldiers till the end ✊ 💔
@@MangaHorse Ikr I wanted to say something about Connie as well but tbh he didn't hit me as hard as Jean did because when I first saw the panel of them turning into Titans I thought of Jean and his development and how he could've avoided this fate so easily. Connie had pretty much nothing to lose and has ended up the same exact way as his parents. I really like Connie and I am ashamed that I don't have much to say about him. 😅
Think about it this way The reason we don’t feel for Connie is because his pain was never in the center of things and he always kept smiling while in reality he lost his parent, 2 brothers, and his entire family and village in one day, and 4 years later also his best friend While he NEVER complained or cried about his family If you think about it, he lost everything but still didn’t lose his mind...and you know that in a different anime guys like connie that lose their families often lose their minds and become antagonists themselves, and from that aspect Connie is an extremely strong person, it’s a shame the story didn’t show it more, but I guess you can’t show everything 🤔
@@MangaHorse Damn you're right, though there were some instances where Connie almost lost his mind, such as he tried to feed Falco to his mother Titan, and went berserk and shot Samuel multiple times in the face. Connie was always the happy one (well 2nd happy one, no one beats Sasha) and yet he has every reason not to. Though still it made sense for him to go stop Eren, becuase he at least had morals and also had nothing to lose.
Yes you are right, he is not perfect, and that moments were part of his character development But the fact that he was torn about that after, and that he understood that doing those things won’t bring back his mother, that is what makes Connie to be mentally strong 💪
I think the long dream Eren had as a kid was the reality that Eren lived through. Just before he died he sent his memories back to see if he can change the future again, and in doing so we have the timeline of attack on titan that we have been following now.
I too thought the same! Its because when Eren in the other timeline passed on, Mikasa said "See you later...Eren" and that same scene played again in S1E1 when child Eren woke up under the tree.
Hehe yes, CZcams kept rejecting my video so each time I remembered something else I wanted to ass or reference, so it became a 25 minute vid 😅 I hope you’ll enjoy it 🙏
When Mikasa said that she lost her family again and needed to star over again, she remembered the feeling when her parents got killed. It means that she'll need to start all over emotionally and find new people who will be family to her, which was Eren to that point. It makes complete sense. I remember that being a strong scene when I read the manga.
Definitely! There is a chance Mikasa is going to be the “big thing” of AoT By now it seems she has one of the most interesting hmm past? Future? I don’t know anymore 😅 And thank you so much for watching, I’m happy you enjoyed it
Oh my...now I’m affraid to show you my “workplace” And of course I appreciate the FATE reference 💪 But Honestly, low budget, but a lot of hours of edit to make things look nice 😊 And thank you so much! It so cool people think my content looks good
You’re FAST 💪 Awww and thank you so much 😊 I still can’t process the fact that people actually wait for my videos and really enjoy them, I’m really humbled by that Thank you so much my friend
I think I get this now. Basically, Mikasa’s choices are basically altering time itself. In the alternate reality, her wanting to see Eren more worsened her mother’s condition. Then when that desire went away, Eren died. Once she refused Eren’s death as part of reality, then Eren saved her in Titan form.
I also believe that Eren and Mikasa are most likely in a time loop, as we see them waking up from a “long dream” constantly, and it always happens at the beginning of Attack on Titan, raising the idea that Attack on Titan is a time loop, which he explains with the alternate realities theory.
I loved this chapter. So heartbreaking. Personally I think that the cabin scene was Eren talking to Mikasa via Paths, telling her that he loves her, but she has to let him go.
This analysis was amazing, i loved how you included the ova episode too. Personally, this chapter was sad and full of emotion, but it hurts that jean never confesses to mikasa and how falco left gabi and my feelings were all over the placeeee. Also, i must ask what is your favourite ship if its not mikasa and eren? i dont really ship anyone but i believe armin and eren are platonic soulmates
Actually, Isayama is an insane manga writer, he needs a physisist and yeah we too after watching the final episode, I am crying. I love Isayama, don't misunderstand, I love his manga, he is like a grandfather
If Ymir doesn’t bring back Eren the same way she brought back Zeke then we’re gonna need an explanation as to why Ymir is now opposing Eren. There seem to be quite a lot of plot holes that need clearing up, like where did Levi get that thunder spear from and how did he know Eren was in the mouth?
Levi knew he was in the mouth because Mikasa told him And she obviously knew like I said in the video 😊 About the other things you raise good questions, I will address some of them in my next video
isnt it erens decision? him and mikasa both seem to have lived those timelines although im not too sure how much he remembers dureing the timeline maybe he only learns of the other timelines at certain points dureing the story so mikasa must act or do certain things to even ensure eren will get far enough to ever remember any of it, both kind of working in tandom to hopefully free the eldians and stop the conflict once and for all but in order to do so eren must die (as theyve lived every other outcome to no avail). I dont think that will kill the symbiote titan worm thing but i think it will have to shrink in order to attempt to infect anyone else now..... if it even can shrink, leading to its demise and the freeing of the eldians from the paths alowing them to rest in peace and somehow reincarnate ymir..... which is a bit of a stretch imo but the child could just be named in honor of her or the other ymir and just before the worm thing is killed we see a happy eren in the paths and then give it a hundred years theyll be useing tanks etc to wage war anyway, then whats left of the worm thing leaves the planet thinking fuck this i aint ready for nukes lol
Your forgetting prior to becoming titans Connie and Jean, even Armin were loaded with thunder spears while fighting for their lives against the past shifters Eren had running around, I mean I think it’s safe to say they probably grabbed them as Levi was yelling at everyone aside from Jean and Connie to get on Falco before they turned into mindless titans. Also, There is one more chapter left so how do we come to this conclusion that Ymir is going against Eren ? just because mikasa chopped his head off doesn’t mean a thing, how about waiting until the last chapter drops to make that assumption lol some of y’all want Eren to win (even though nobody is gonna win) so bad you’re nit picking at the smallest things, RELAX and just let the story play out 😭
@@lm4733 Nah, pointing out major plot holes and bad writing isn’t nit picking, it’s that mentality that allows artists to become lazy with their work because they know their consumer base doesn’t care about the quality of their product anymore.
so i wonder if the butterfly dream could also be interpreted the butterfly effect in mikasa’s case, where in a timeline where even just a single butterfly dies it could change the entire future. maybe that’s what her headaches really are the “effect” of making a different choice flooding her mind with all the different paths. i know the butterfly dream is a different philosophy, but it’s still cool to think of
Oh yes, You can also apply the butterfly effect as small changed in one place that leads to bigger ones across time in a different place For example, Ymir frees some pigs And 2000 years later there is a major world conflict that leads to where we are today (with a lot of events in between of course) This video was more philosophical, but I will talk about science in my next one 😊
That's beautiful. mikasa's love for eren is soo deep and pure. it is not obssesed, but it is not that easy because she would never give up on loving eren. she is so strong, extremely strong to love someone that much unconditionally
Honestly I was never a fan of their ship, but I was always a huge fan of Mikasa and I always knew she will get her moment And this indeed was beautifully sad, the scene with Eren was chilling AND heartbreaking I really loved that chapter and I can’t wait to see what is waiting for us at the last chapter 🤩
I thought Mikasa apoligized to her mom because of her death or somthing,your perception came to clear it all it somehow reminded me of the "Ereased" anime.thank you
Oh I loved erased, I just wish it was a bit longer And yes you are right to be confused about the scene in the anime because it was extremely random But in the manga we can clearly see it 4 times, and each time her mom gets worse and Grisha and Eren need to come more often The last time it is so bad that Grisha tell her she needs yo move next to him, that happened “surprisingly” after Eren stopped visiting her And that was the only time shown in the anime, so anime watchers had no reference to compare it too
You really Explained it very well....I really wanted to hear about the connection between chapter 138 and Mikasa's lost girl OVA ..This video was Awesome..👍
I dont know where it was from but there was a myth that sometimes two people are connected by the "red thread of fate" like the movie Your Name. Eren's scarf can be that thread connecting him and Mikasa through time.
@@MangaHorse so our actual MC are Mikasa?? Imagine getting spoon-fed almost every chapter the world are evolving around Eren to only getting a slap in the face that version of Eren is just an illusion...Damn you Isayamaaaaa
That is a nice way to look at it, but yes, I think Mikasa is actually the “big thing” in all of this mess I have more vids coming about her, so we will try to understand more before the final chapter
Yeah, this madman Isayama put so many little details in his work, it's really amazing. In chapter 123 it's clear that Eren doesn't hate Mikasa, that he is so fucking sad because of the future events, because of how much pain he gonna deal to his friends, because he knows that this boy gonna die from the rumbling. And even if Eren doesn't love Mikasa as much as she loves him, then at least he cares about her. But after his question "What am I to you?" they are interrupted by other guys and he says an insanely important phrase that Mikasa doesn't understand, he says "Perfect timing". But why? Because he somehow knows (through "paths"? Ymir? connection to Mikasa's unique combined bloodline of two noble clans?) that this is the moment where her "false memory" ("long dream") from chapter 138 took a different route in the future events. This is why he cries in first chapter, because of their imposible future together, but he couldn't figure it out at that moment. I hope Isayama will clarify in chapter 139 how or why their connection between Mikasa's "false memories" ("long dream") and Eren's "real memories" happened. And I also hope that my crazy theory that I have about her combined bloodline and headaches is somewhat correct. This mad genius Isayama created very fucking sad love story about separation of two people, at least from Mikasa's point of view. It's weird as hell of how I feel so broken and satisfied at the same time because of Mikasa's great character development. I think this is one of the saddest and best love stories. Isayama really know how to "torture" people. In a good way of course, in a way of a great writer. And I think AoT definitely doesn't have different timelines, timeloops or universes. Maybe it's just about Mikasa's unique combined bloodline. And I have a crazy theory about it. If you want I can explain.
@@Bolypius This is only my interpretation and I can be wrong, but I think and hope that it's somewhat correct. This will be long, but I will try to connect all clues which Isayama left. So first of all I found something important. In early chapters of manga Isayama point out that Mikasa have headaches, espesially in chapter 5 after situation with a cart. But what's important in this moment is that we have a girl, which saluted to Mikasa after her help. And because of that Mikasa feels headache and asking herself why I remember it now (memory about parents, we will back to this later). So who this girl and why Mikasa have a headache? This is a girl from chapter 109 (!!!) which Mikasa put behind bars. And what happend next? They are talked about Eren and girl saluted to Mikasa again and... because of that Mikasa feel headache again and she saw "Tatakae!" moment! BUT WHY!? Where is a connection to trigger of this headache? It is chapter 126 when Mikasa take back her scarf from that girl and she told Mikasa very important thing about conversation with Eren about her. Eren wanted this girl to THROW THIS SCARF AWAY (and this is not because he hate Mikasa, we know that this is MASSIVE bullshit). What it remind you? Yes, chapter 138 and Mikasa's "long dream" in which Eren says to her "THROW THE SCARF AWAY... And be free... Forget about me..." and then "dream" ends. But Mikasa deny to forget him and put her scarf on (damn, this moment hit me hard and then this kiss... damn, this madman Isayama) and says that Eren is in the mouth (!!!). But HOW she know this? So, what I'm trying to say with that? We have something like this: Headaches through chapter 5 --> chapter 109 --> chapter 126 --> chapter 138 = chapter 5 --> chapter 138 = memories of the future (!!!) or it can be reversed like world map in AoT, 138 --> 5 (Mikasa's headache about parents). So like this we are back to chapter 5. And, unlike anime, what we have there? Mikasa have a conversation with her ASIAN mom about the mark under the bandages (!!!) and also about having a child (hmm... last frame of manga will be with child too, hmm...). So why this mark was established so early in the plot? Only to make Mikasa somekind of princess? NO WAY! This is pointless for future events, especially after genocide. It's all because this mark is important for another thing (!!!) what takes us to chapter 107 about Hizuru, Azumabito and all this stuff 100 years ago BEFORE WALLS. But why this is so important? Why shogun was in good relationship with Fritz? Maybe because this is a plot twist for chapter 139 or maybe it's not, but I have an idea about it, which takes us to another chapters - 65 and 63! So, chapter 63 has a conversation between Levi and Mikasa about Kenny's and their powers awakening (and this is has nothing to do with the Ackermans "hosts", this is just a lie invented by Eren, if read the manga carefully, it becomes clear). So what about their ability of "knowing what to do next"? It's like spider-sense, right? But HOW? Experiments with titans abilities (!!!) (we know this from Zeke's conv with Eren). But most important chapter in all of this is chapter 65, which called "Dreams and Curses" by the way (damn... that's brilliant, you are a madman Isayama). And what we have there? Kenny's grandpa said very important thing about several noble bloodline clans - "The MEMORIES of people from these MINORITY BLOODLINES were NOT affected by the KING" (!!!). While most of the bloodlines obeyed, who turned their back on Fritz? Right! Only TWO, the ASIAN clan and Ackermans. But why did the good relationship with the Hizuru shogun turn against Fritz? And why was it necessary to get rid of the Ackermans family guard? Because he can't CONTROL their memories. But WHY he can't? Is it all starting to make sense? So, here a crazy thing begins, get ready. Which titans abilities most powerful and intersect with this story? It's "memories of the future" of the Attack titan and "memory manipulation" of the Founding titan! So, think about it like this, what if... Ackermans = experiments with abilities of the Attack titan --> they "know what to do next" or have something like spider-sense; Asians (or, more likely, only royal branch of them) = experiments with abilities of the Founding (!!!) titan --> ability to create memories or by another words "dreams" (!!!). And this is where Mikasa becomes very important to the plot! Why? Because she is a combination of this "powers", she's an Ackerman and asian at the same time. This is HOW Isayama made her so special and crucial to the plot. So maybe this is how she creates this "dreams" by her Founding titan connection and have this headaches because of the Attack titan. What I mean is that no matter how hard she trying to escape from reality by creating this "dreams" she knows that Eren is gonna DIE and because of it even in "false memories" she can't save him. And also this means: Eren (The Attack titan and the Founding titan) Ymir and her "paths", CURSE of Ymir, Mikasa's "long DREAM" (chapter 1 for Eren = chapter 318 for Mikasa) Mikasa (abilities of this titans) = title of chapter 65 "Dreams and Curses" (!!!). I hope this all makes sense. DAMN, this madman Isayama are fucking great writer. Put so many details into his work just to tell an insanely sad love story of the separation between two people who are not able to be together because of the cruel world and their fate. "This is a cruel world, and yet so beautiful... I'm sorry, Eren, I can't give up. If I die now, I won't even be able to remember you." (Mikasa Ackerman) Isayama, you are a genius madman, you can finally open your goddamn sauna, because now you have an ocean of tears to do it. Fuck, this definitely feels cruel... but yet so beautiful.
@@-MrTwister- amazing explanation my dude! Really Good job... I actually have something in mind about how mikasa might have some sort of founding Titan ability since the Ackermans are immune to memory manipulation (by founding Titan) but u placed everything together :D
@@Ericmatcha After chapter 138 I felt uneasy and spent days racking my brains trying to figure out what I had missed. And then bam, I remembered Lost Girls part, I began to search and analyze, along the way remembering moments with Mikasa, as if I was following a path of bread crumbs. And at some point, this all came together in my head and I felt such satisfaction that I probably realized what Isayama did with Mikasa's character. If chapter 139 or Isayama himself later does not clarify the situation with Mikasa, then this will be my personal interpretation of what happened. After all, this was the first character he came up with. It is also interesting that she is drawn first at the very beginning of the manga and on page 13. I could not resist after episode 5 of the first season and started reading the manga from the very beginning. And that frame on page 13 made it clear to me that it might be more Mikasa's story than Eren's to some extent, that it would be VERY important. And I was even a little upset that this dream moment was not included in the anime. But on the other hand, this is even good, it will be interesting to see the reaction of people, their understanding of what happened. I hope that MAPPA will do everything right and beautifully in the last episode, that they will perfectly edit the moment from chapter 318, somehow linking it with the very first episode, then after "Why are you crying?" (chapter 1) episode will rewind everything from that scene to a moment with a kiss and make only anime audience blow their heads off.
Same thing in real life: every choice we make, moves us to another reality, there's a reality where this morning you ate another breakfast, we're constantly shifting realities.
Hey Manga horse, long time no see. Are you doing well??? Hope you come soon with mind blowing video. Can you provide us an estimate date for Next video??
Other animes: *gives plot armor to a character just so they don't die* Isayama: *gives plot armor to Reiner so he will suffer even more* **SUFFERING GO BRRRR**
Bro! I've been saying this theory to other fans and they just shake me off.You're also right about them being connected beyond time and space. Maybe Eren knows this and also knows the only way to escape the loop is for him to die and perhaps break the titan curse. I liken Eren to the Alpha and Mikasa to the Omega. Hence Mikasa kissing Eren at the end of his life in both realities.
That is a nice idea and also a possible scenario no doubt 🤔 Although I personally want to believe Mikasa is somehow the “big deal” here, and not Eren or even Ymir I think it’s a twist a lot of people won’t expect, especially since Mikasa was always a quiet character
@@MangaHorse Exactly! Like what you said about the knives. What if, there's also a reality where she didn't pick one up. So maybe she's steering this reality and her headaches are guiding her. Probably only saying this because I want them to be together but, when Eren finally got the hang of ODM gear. Everyone was commenting on his eyes and what they were saying but Mikasa said "No, they're saying he doesn't have to leave me". Maybe in another reality he didn't make training.
Ymir escaped to another world which is the paths and Mikasa is currently doing something similar with her mind escaping to worlds that have what she wants. Also I don't think we ever hear Ymir's birth surname as Fritz is from taking King Fritz's name, so maybe it was Ymir Ackerman?
That would be pretty cool if her surname was Ackerman, but we learned that the ackermans are actually byproducts of titan research, which means they came much after...that is of course if we haven’t been lied too by Zeke 🤔
I really appreciate it! Thank you ☺️ I usually theorize about things that I really want to see in the story, but only after I make sure they are logical and make sense I’m really happy you like how my crazy mind works 😅🙏
I think that the pannels are slanded because it shows the mental state of that time like holds tension,pain,..etc And in other with normal shows having calm,loving,..etc Also I'm afraid that if the ending of AOT will be like starting from the beginning and then looping though different possibilities.Btw your theories are far beyond genious.
Thank you so much my friend! This is really nice of you 🤗 And about the panels, yes, you could be right, but I just wanted to make people notice the difference
Thank you so much my friend, it is so nice if you to say 😊 And I agree, I also loved Chapter 138 a lot! Can’t wait to see what we have waiting for us next chapter 👀
imma save this video for when chapter 139 comes out in a week or so. you're a genius man! i've had similar theories like this but you're a genius. yours is much more detailed. lol. i've been thinking about alternate realities since that flashback episode of how her parents died. she did mention something about why am i remembering this now during her monologue. and your're right. she used to say those things a lot- the i've seen this before. it seemed weird at the time but with your theory, this makes sense.
Oh wow thank you so much ☺️ I’m actually planning to deliver another video before the last chapter, so I hope you’ll enjoy it as well I may be twice as right, or twice as wrong 😅 But in any case I promise my video will be interesting 🧐
Absolutely And actually there are more OVA to aot, and except for 2 which are mostly fun, every other OVA has a purpose and a part in the events and in the understanding of the story
Nice breakdown 👌 love your theories and how you connect to Lost Girls and FNA. Never thought ED1 would be important. 138 is probably my favorite chapter, especially as an Eremika shipper lol even read it 4 times. I do believe in the alternate multiverse theory. Isayama did say the ending would bitter sweet. My guess is the rest of the world is doomed, not really buying the "Ymir will turn everyone back to normal" theory. Feels to safe for Isayama style. I think the world is doomed and Mikasa's kiss will transport her and everyone to the universe where Hange and the rest of the deceased scouts are. I'd like to believe Isayama will probably explore in the last chapter multiverse with Goth Mikasa, and possibly Junior High.
Thank you so much!! That is so nice if you and I really appreciate it 🤗 And also I’m really people are noticing, I really try to improve with every video, and I hope I can improve even more 😃 Thank you again my friend for all the support 🙏
It was beyond worth waiting one week for your release and listen to the entire thing. The possibility of multiple parallel realities existing one beside another, or them being in a cycle of existence is beyond mindblowing. Not to mention that our "free will" is also not so free as we'd like to think. It's more like biologically and sociologically causal will that gives the illusion of being free. If that's the case all efforts of having free will and "being free" are in a sense futile. But regardless of Zeke's argument on what LIFE is, all we can do is what Armin told back to Zeke. Enjoy the moments we have and live as mindfully as possible. One question: How does Mikasa's ability to remember previous realities come together with Ymir calling the supernatural shots? Can Ymir transcend not only time but realities as well? ! chapter to wrap everything up. I can't wait, but also I'm enjoying having to wait. It's the last time we wait.
“It’s the last time we’ll wait” 😳 I know this, but still I still can’t process it 😔 And thank you so much for watching, I’m so happy you enjoyed it About your question, honestly by now it could only be a guess on how Isayama will choose to take this He could take it to a very insane place, like some sort of simulation, or to even a more crazy direction which I will talk about in the next chapter 😉 I really want it to be more on the science side and less fantasy I mean, after he literally introduced evolution, he can’t go on downgrading to some god figure, I mean he can but it will look awkward in my opinion What I mean is that Mikasa should have a very good reason for why she is able to do what she does And also, there seems to be some sort of connection between Mikasa Eren and Ymir, what brings me to ask why Armin was pushed aside, or does he still have something else to reveal Also, Zeke’s titan should be transferred to someone else, and I still don’t understand why Isayama “gave “ Annie’s titan the ability to inherit titan powers by eating different titans, if we are not going to use this info Sorry I kinda went all over the place 😅 I will try doing 2 more videos on the last chapter and this one as well Maybe I will even go live on CZcams and we can have a discussion I need to think about it 🤔
@@MangaHorse Not only you, I'll think about it too, or at least try. That might be something you already know, but "Mikasa" sounds just like Spanish "Mi casa" which means "My home".
Yes I sometimes make fun of that 😊 Although Mikasa is named after a japanese WW2 battleship with the same name But it would be cool if Isayama thought of the spanish meaning as well 🤔
I think the founding titan allowed Eren to create these alternate realities in paths for Mikasa so they could be together in a different reality. Her Ackerman blood resists the founder's ability to erase memories, thus the headaches and her remembering some small details.
Somehow as we near the end of Attack on Titan I have more questions than answers and now I'm wondering what's in store for us when the final chapter comes.
I love your accent.Don’t overthink it .We all have our own accent and your accent makes you unique but more importantly whenever I see your videos it makes me happy cause it shows people from all background watches this masterpiece 💙🤍
Thank you so much my friend I really appreciate it 🙏 And you are right, everyone has his/her differences I just try to make my videos as accessible as possible for everyone 😊
I don't think those memories are from another reality because; If Eren and Mikasa would run away at that night; Eren would never be at the War of Shiganshina and never meet with Zeke to reach for the Paths. If Eren wouldn't go to the paths; He would never manipulated his father aka Grisha and Grisha wouldn't get the Founding Titan power from Frieda Reiss. Everything would be different if Eren and Mikasa would run from the Paradis group at that night. It's the just ideal of Mikasa and Eren saw this from by Paths or Founding Titan ability.
I completely understand what you are saying, and I am going to address this super confusing issue in my next video But i will just say there is a scientific explanation that will explain this, but it is a very complicated one, so I’m trying to figure out how to explain it and still make it interesting for everyone to watch 😊
I had this concern too, but I might have found an idea that solves it. I don’t know the physics of it, or if there’s a term for it. But essentially, there’s only one reality. There will always be a version of Eren that goes to the paths. You’re pointing out the paradox, but it’s actually this paradox that makes it plausible for Eren to still get powers. A paradox has no beginning or end, it’s a circle/ cycle. It has to happen for the story to work. Regardless of which version of Eren we’re watching, there’s always a version of him that gets to Zeke. It just so happens that we got to see that version of Eren throughout the series. It’s hard to understand, but just don’t try to put time in a linear position. The past, present, and future are happening at the same time. Different realities are happening at the same time. While a version is living with Mikasa, a different version is fighting her.
@@berenice9000 I understood what you said but I don't think that's possible because there is only one chapter left and adequate preparation has not been made by Isayama. If he wanted to take things that way, he would have announced Mikasa's dream at least 5-6 chapters before and prepared the finale accordingly. But he waited to draw till one chapter before final chapter and that means he didn't decide to end whole series from this way and he is not going to mention it more. Also, when Chapter 138's drafts published, we clearly saw the sentences that wrotten by Isayama that describes what is going to be drawn in those Eremika panels. He was telling that what happened would draw Mikasa as her 'ideal'. That means, those things that we saw between Eren and Mikasa are just Mikasa's imagination from what happens if she would confess her feelings to Eren before. On the other hand, even if we think things will not happen from that way, he may even attribute it to Ackerman bond, because he has already touched on this issue on OVA's. Did you read the Blue Butterfly theory about Mikasa? I think most meaningful theory is that because; It's a symbolic thing in Japanese culture and it describes "If you cannot tell if you are dreaming, you cannot understand what is real because you will not be sure of reality," It's much meaningful than the theory about other realities, I think.
@@metlevser8658 you could be correct, but I still see it as a possibility. All he’d have to do is outright show different versions of these two characters and explain how they got to this point. He never actually says “this is a paradox,” we have to figure that stuff out with our own critical thinking. I’m not so sure he’d be the type to wrap up an epilogue and show Paradis’ college years lol. He could spend majority of the last chapter focused on how it started. I feel like Eren’s perspective unlocks a lot of answers . And the Ackerman thing that you mentioned, would also need more focus attached to it if it were true, so your idea is on the same boat. Can it be covered in one chapter? If it’s a dream, how does Mikasa have access? Why did she get the headaches beforehand?
No doubt, I think AoT will become one if the big ones, it’s already no.2 on MyAnimeList And I think that with time more people will hear about that from friends and the fandom will actually keep growing as new fans will be introduced to the show
@@MangaHorse I also think that future manga writers will def be taking inspiration and notes from Isayama and how he managed to make his MC so dynamic and complex. He has set a new bar for your typical shonen/seinen protags. I mean hell, it takes balls to make your main character commit genocide. Especially for such a big and popular series like this. Isayama sure isn't afraid to step on our souls and heart strings and it is that risky not playing it safe type of writing that made this series such a hit.
Oh wow that’s a huge compliment Thank you so much! And I’m so happy you like it 🙏 And get ready for my next video where I will take the science approach...and then things will start getting REALLY crazy... trust me 😉
This helped me understand things so much better, thanks for a great analysis! It also makes me feel less bitter about the tragic ending, especially if it means that they really did get to live out his last 4 years together.
Thank you so much! I’m so happy you like my idea 😃 There will be another video further explaining this issue and also time loops in attack on titan. And of course my last chapter review which is on the way as well. 😊
I really appreciate it! 😃 I just want my videos to be as accessible as possible for everyone And I know m accent can be a bit rough for some people, but it’s awesome to know that people can understand be fine also without subtitles 🙏
Oh wow thank you so much! It means a lot to me knowing think my ideas are original, I really appreciate it 🙏 There is a follow up video for this one coming soon...and I promise it’s going to be crazy and also very interesting 😉 Thank you again for watching and letting me know your thoughts 🤗
I really like this. I enjoyed your theory! 😮 Since Eren keeps dying and she can't take it anymore then she decided to end it her way? Is that what you mean? Then Why is Ymir smiling? Because she thinks that finally Mikasa is the one who end it this time? That she is finally letting go and there won't be another paths to take
thank you so much! about ymir, I cant say for sure why she is happy simply because we dont know what she actually wants but I do believe she wanted Mikasa to come to this conclusion and to maybe remember something she once forgot, something she once saw in a long dream she had...and it seems that mikasa does remember something now because she knew exactly where Eren was inside his titan
hopefully the last chapter will answer all, if not most of our questions and at the same time give us an ending that will leave us breath taken and satisfied. who knows maybe there will be a second story to continue this one depending on how well is plays out also nice vid man love the accent and all the attention to detain throughout the vid
I really appreciate it my friend, thank you 🙏 And actually there is a spin off story called “before the fall” but yes I see what you mean, Isayama can leave the door open for future developments 🤔
Yay!! thank you so much for letting me know 🤗 It really means a lot to me knowing People worldwide can understand me. That was always one of my biggest concerns
You really Worked very hard for this video right? I was waiting eagerly for your video..And it was worth it..!! I was sure that it wasn't just a dream but I was really confused about "Mikasa's ideal or AU thing" But You really explained this very well...I love how Everything is connected in the world of AOT....Now just the last chapter is left..🥺🥺
Thank you so much my friend, and thank you for noticing 🙏 I did work a lot on this video and I’m so happy it helped clear things up But like I said, that’s not all... There is even a more crazy video coming that will explain everything with science like no other CZcamsr has done before Trust me 😉
That is so nice of you! thank you so much for commenting and letting me know, and of course welcome to my channel 🤗 You can expect my future videos to have the same quality and vibe 🙏
Mikasa can experience these alternate timelines because the Founding Titan doesn't affect her memories, no matter how many times Eren resets it. Which makes me think, does Eren finally realize he has to die in order for the time loop to end? What timeline is the current AoT taking place in? Is this the true timeline? How many times did everyone have to die in order to get to this moment? What has Eren truly seen. I have a feeling that there will be no happy ending. Also, what the hell is that centipede creature!? Please. I need an answer already! 😳
I think the most important question you raised is what is the true reality, or origin world If some sort of catastrophe happened once that made this all situation, then it must have originated from something About Eren’s death, I actually believe he died many times, in other realities, and our Mikasa just remembered this at the end, and probably been remembering this over and over many times
Dude I’m not even finished watching but you never cease to blow my mind!!! That ending scenes and the knives ?!?! OMG. I def knew she was “jumping realities” but allll the proof you provided omg omg omg
Thank you so much my friend, I’m so happy you enjoyed it 🤗 And you should enjoy my next one as well, i am going to prove everything I talked about today using science 🧬
Very interesting approach!! Great vid! still: I don't get the vibe between mikasa and eren, I don't feel their chemistry beyond their familial bond, never have :/ My heart broke because of Jean and Conny, it gets me everytime i think about it :( not been this sad over a fictional death since Fred Weasley Can't believe this would be it: you're only able to survive if you're something special, a titan shifter, an Ackerman, a royal family member..
I’m with you on that, I always felt Eren and Mikasa are more family than lovers, but I think there is still something we don’t know about, some reason for their connection 🤔
One connection supporting the Mikasa theory is when she tells Armin in the beginning of the series that he has saved her and Eren many times. Armin is confused because he’s always being saved by them, but this could imply that mikasa has already seen him do it in the multiple realities. The current reality might have been the one that breaks both Eren and Mikasa free. Eren must always goes forward, but Mikasa can choose the direction in which he goes.
Right, that moment really confused Armin, but they didn’t kept on going become all the mess around...Great attack on titan way to cleverly hide little details 👌
Yes finally! I was really looking forward to your review. The lost girls ova is really a great mystery but you have explained it very well. At first, I was thinking that the last panel is Ymir being reincarnated but after chapter 138 and seeing Mikasa's face when she is being hugged by Eren and was asked to forget about him and be free, I think that the baby is Mikasa. There are a lot of theories saying that Eren is the one controlling the timelines, it will be mindblowing if it was Mikasa all along.
thank you so much! I am so happy you liked it :) and honestly, I would really like the Idea of Mikasa being the big twist of the story i always loved her and told people she will get her moment...but i didnt expect this kind of moment, so I am extremely happy about it :)
You have such a charming accent, please dont feel embarrassed about it and dont apologize!! PS: This video helped me SO much! I read that chapter 3 times and still didnt understand what happened, you are amazing at explaining!! I'll def subscribe after this!
Yay thank you so much ☺️ And welcome to my channel 🤗 You could be absolutely right about the dream part, it’s just that I will always prefer the more scientific route, but Of course this is only my personal opinion and I can always be wrong about it 😊
Hey, just wanted to stop by and say that I love your videos. Theyre so well made and some of the best Attack on Titan content out there. I’ve seen in other comments that you’re having health issues. Im Excited for your video on the finale, but I am also hoping your health is better now. Keep up the good work man, well wishes
Thank you so much my friend, I absolutely appreciate your kind words and all the love and support ❤️ Unfortunately that’s true that I’ve been having some hard times lately and It really warms my heart seeing people care about my condition, thank you so much for that 🙏 My condition prevented me from recording, but I’ve never stoped working on content for you, including an extremely long and detailed video about chapter 139, including a new theory of mine that I’m sure a lot of you would love, and of course I also addressed the extra pages we got I’m doing the best I can to get back on track, and I will return to posting vids regularly very soon I want to thank you again for your love, concern and patience, It really means the world to me ❤️
I'm 100% behind this theory I think it is beautiful and makes me want to read the whole manga again to look for clues! I believe this has all been planned from day 1. Also I think this best explains people still being "alive" in paths, almost like they are between worlds or realities. It's so good to hear a review that is level headed as a lot of the discourse is very toxic atm.
your comment is awesome! and i am so happy my video made you want to check and explore this amazing story from the start :) and be ready for another video where I will provide a proof to everything I said in this video using science ;)
Bro you need to do a video about the last chapter and the extra pages of the series, I'm really curious about your opinion, I saw a comment of you saying you had some health problems hope you are doing great, I'll be gladly waiting for your opinion about the ending, keep up the good work 💪
Thank you so much for your concerns my friend 🙏 Yes, I do have some health issues but I’m trying to push through it I never stopped working on videos, and you will get my video including an update of the new panels we got thank you so much for your patience, I really appreciate it ❤️
Thank you so much! It really means a lot to me 😊 I write myself and Also my theories are based on things that I personally would have wanted to see, so knowing you think my idea is close to the level of Isayama...this is a huge compliment for me, thank you so much! 🙏 Also, my next video will make things even more interesting 😉
I know my friend and I am terribly sorry for that I had some health Issues That prevented me from delivering content 😞 But I never stopped working on my videos, and you will get a really detailed videos including the new panels we just got Thank you so much for your patience, I really appreciate it 🙏
Wow looking back at these chapters I read these in the manga books and always wondered what these moments meant now watching the ovas it made so much sense now
Yes absolutely, the OVA brought together a lot of things But because the manga is spread throughout so many years, it’s sometimes hard to piece them all together
@@MangaHorse hell i loved the anime because it was my official get me into anime cause it was this show that made me a weeb . and it was the best damn show i couldve asked for. even season one made me read the manga in schools and online . love your theories by the way youre pretty cool dude
Thank you so much for your concern my friend, and I’m sorry I disappeared like that. I just got to the point I really needed to take care of myself before It will get worse and I tend to make a video about it and share it with everyone, but first I will deliver the videos I’ve been working on for the last few months I promise I’ll be back soon and I’m sorry again for letting you all wait for so long 🙏
I mean since the rumbling started we haven't seen Eren. That head Mikasa cut off looked like a lifeless puppet to me. The tiny bit of view from Eren we've got he was feeling 'out of body and detatched from reality' so I think sadly for the alliance they haven't been fighting Eren at all this whole time. Eren is using the warhammer ability from back on Paradise.
@@SolusLupi I agree but I wanna know if it's not eren how did we see him in his titan is it possible maybe he using the founding titan abillties to make an illusion?
isayama saying this is only the beginning makes so much sense now another universe will start where mikasa goes through it all again and again isayama is really cruel
Yes he is 😔 But just to clarify, I don’t think the other universes need this one to end in order to exist I think they are all moving somewhat together and we simply were aware of one of them So basically there is always Eren and Mikasa...somewhere 😊
"We also understand why Reiner didn't die earlier... He just needed to suffer some more"
That hit me like a truck
Did you notice how my avatar gave Isayama an evil look on how he made Reiner suffer so much 😅
Manga horse has expressions now 😃
@@MangaHorse wow Manga Horse, hitting us with quality animation to enlighten our emotions!! I wanna say I really love that line because I feel the same way about Reiner. He could not accept losing the fight against the pure-turned-jaw Titan when the four kids initially invaded paradis, which, in hindsight, would've worked better for the planet entirely if they simply went back home, got in trouble, the warrior program would be questioned because they killed a kid, and honestly maybe even a peaceful interaction between the outside world would've resulted.
But no. Reiner wanted to be a hero.. and sadly.. not knowing better, the butterfly effect resulted in the killing of the entire city he grew up in.
Yeah, despite his actions he remained alive to see everyone he loves die because of his ignorance, but I don't really feel like he's at fault. But as the symbolic manifestation of Marleyan propaganda, a "Marleyan/American hero," he really prolonged the cycle of hate in the worst possible way, towards the extreme climax of Eren getting pushed so start the rumbling.
Reiner moved forward, Eren moved forward. both raised by a society that lied to them and both thinking they were saving the world by fighting their "enemy," which is a term used by propaganda and military for violence where it really isn't necessary, especially considering how possible it is for people to get along without that mentality, just like Paradis did with their blissful ignorance. When two people like that come together, and they did, they're bound to realize that they're just humans doing good for themselves.. but unable to connect peacefully because of the history or propaganda.
Though, because AoT is our story, we want Reiner to suffer just enough but because he isn't really a bad guy, he's getting to live it out alongside Eren to the end. The paths truly connected all the Titans to that final battle in that moment, one last time before Eren dies with 3 Titan abilities, and with no previous person dying that way, I wonder how those powers will be transferred. Indeed, Eren dying and losing the Founding Titan, Attack Tiran, AND Warhammer Titan, effectively ends the most powerful three Titan abilities that are also rooted in hatred. Systematic War (warhammer). Violence (attack).Manipulation (founding). 3/9 or 1/3 of the Titan abilities with no one next to inherit them. I think the remaining shifters can live long lives after Eren dies because he was the "devil" having all these powerful abilities that he desperately wanted to die with as many as possible to close the cycle of cannibalism.
Crazy stuff here guys
@@Oddie99000 No. They would've likely fed all three kids to new candidates and repeated the attempt. We're talking about a country who sent wave after wave of scouting ships to the island and were surprised every time they didn't come back, only to send more. Reiner and Eren moved forward in a world incapable of moving forward.
Marley's greed and hatred locked them in a cycle that they repeated over and over and over again, first started by the very people who oppressed them, and now they oppress. So no. No one would care that an Eldian child died on Paradis anymore than they cared when Grisha's sister was killed. Eldians were lesser than dirt to them.
They would have destroyed all three children. Reiner would've been the priority, but as soon as they had viable candidates to replace the other two, they'd be gone. Reiner was no less valuable, no matter how they set him up through the other kids. He beat out HUNDREDS of children competing for those final slots of training.
Likewise, the Warrior program continued even though Marcel died and Annie and Bertholdt were unaccounted for (as they didn't know what happened to either). It's clear that Zeke and Reiner got some real shit for the losses incurred, but because they had valuable information and had recovered the Jaw Titan, and no candidates were likely ready, they were given their titles. Titles that the candidates, other Warriors and Eldians could ooh and aah at, but ultimately meant nothing unless the Marleyan military felt like it.
So in reality, Reiner made the correct call. Not just for himself, but for Annie and Bertholdt. Rather than be considered defunct products that couldn't operate in the face of adversity (the loss of the Jaw), they pressed forward and they operated to their highest capacity. He MITIGATED the punishment by forcing them all to stay. They lived longer than they would have had they gone home and got caught in the same cycle Marley was locked in.
this made me laugh harder than i should have. plot armored titan is so real. lol
its been that way for a,long time now
Don't ever apologize or anything for your accent , its perfect
OMG thank you ☺️ thank is so nice of you ❤️
The truth is that some people have told me that they hated my voice, accent etc...😅
But I still want to offer them an alternative because obviously I can’t change my voice 😊
But again, thank you for your kind words, people like you always give me so much more motivation 🤗
Yes you are perfect those who said that are dumb
@@MangaHorse Fk those guys
Thank you so much ☺️
@@MangaHorse I had no problem understanding what you said without subs, don’t worry 😄
Jean and connie literally just said "just another day for a survey corps" 😆 without saying it
They did 😔
Yup lmao
they went from killing titans into being one. does that count as a promotion?
@@mayanotopsleep they’re going up in the world
Yes 😂😂😂😂😂
Lmao Hajime Isayama was like "FINE YOU WANNA SEE THEM KISS HERE LOOK AT EM KISS"
And the fan base went: 😦
Totally!
That was such a rough moment, this is bitter sweet 😔
It doesn’t make sense
Absolutely loved that panel. It's so beautiful. You can see how beautiful he made it. How it's not his usual style.
As an Eremika stan I am happy.
I have a feeling I'm going to see a lot of Necro jokes at least until the anime finishes.
I audibly uttered, 'yeeesh...'
Jean didn't deserve this one bit, he deserved a happy ending/life along with Conny and Sasha
I agree 😔
I love Jean and Connie
I am glad I am not the only one who got heartbroken by this moment.
@@soldecle wanna know something sadder? In the scene where Annie,Riener, and Pieck are holding the creature they start to get eaten by titans but not just any titans. Connie ane Jean are attacking Riener, Annie is getting is getting her face grabbed by Riener's mom and her race get's pulled till she starts crying, pieck is getting her body bit as she tries and keep the creature still
@@angeltheangel2088 I kinda felt bad for reiner. but at the same time justice has been made. I mean, connie had his whole village killed too. those poor people didn't deserve that. and that poor woman who was getting eaten slowly by a titan, that was probably someone she knew who was eating her. anyways, the titan shifters had that coming.
Deserve? What does that even mean in the AoT universe?
everyone: did you win?
mikasa/eren shippers: ....yes
everyone: what did it cost you?
mikasa/eren shippers: .....everything
IT COST US EVERYTHING I REGRET IT
Armin/Annie shipper : what about us? Did we get together?
Eren/Armin shippers: ...
It was a sad ending. I mean the saved the world… barely, but it could have been worse. It was a tragedy proper for an opera.
Yes, a tragedy is the most accurate word here 😔
in s2 when eren finally used the founding titan he also told mikasa he would keep wrapping the scarf on her as much as she wanted- maybe relating to the alternate realities or just being an odd thing to say at that moment.
No you are actually right! At least in my opinion
The wrapping of the scarf is also a hint of repetition in this story, and now we can assume it really happens over and over again
There are also a lot more references, I only addressed a couple in this video because it was already way too long and I didn’t won’t to kill everyone from boredom 😅
It ain’t a alternate reality tho, it’s Mikasas ideal world she dreams of
@@adinhodzic5455 no Mikasa's ideal is only the house and the place read the tweet again it says Mikasa's ideal dream is panel 35 if i remember correctly correct me if i'm wrong. Everything else is Eren's selfish dream of living a good life but we know that this was never gonna happen
@@MangaHorse no..nothing is boring..I need more explanation 😭😭 I just finished reading the manga starting from the end of season 4 cuz I can't dodge spoilers anymore. So that's why I'm now binge watching videos bout Mikasa and Eren cuz my heart is 💔
I can feel you 😔
My vid will come soon too 🙏
mikasa has always been one of my fav characters but 138 just solified her as my top 3 female character
Agreed!
She was one of my favorite characters since I first read the manga
I’m really happy that chapter 138 gave her character a huge boost 😊
When you realize all those jokes you made about Mikasa being the main character of the series after s1 ep5 end up not being jokes lol. It's been her story all along.
And I’m super happy for this development 😃
How....is this her story??? do you Mikasa Stan's sometimes get ahead of yourselves. She is nice character but saying this is her story and driving it when she had been non existant in several arcs, pit to the back burner despite her being FMC......is not it.
This is what it looks like at this point, nothing got to do with simping Mikasa, it just seems that her character by now has a very good chance to pull off this twist
But of course we will all find out for sure tommorow 🤗
@@drishyam272 Mikasa stans? Bruh, I don't even really like Mikasa lol
Well, after reading the last chapter this was partially correct lol. Sort of.
I've had a similar theory since the chapter came out, I watched the OVA and actually, at 15:06, when Mikasa comes back to the "original reality", it's not really the original reality, before Mikasa goes on to live in another reality, when she's staring at the butterfly, notice how the pomegranate is intact? but when Mikasa comes back at the end of the OVA, the pomegranate is not intact (like the original anime), meaning this reality where Eren is a shifter, is also an alternate one.
Mikasa is going through all the possible realities, but this is the final one, because after coming to this reality, she decides to live on even if Eren is dead, which is why I think this is the only reality that she is able to kill him (in chapter 138) because she already let go of him when she thought the Santa Titan ate him, this is the reality that breaks the loop.
I tried looking for other people thinking the same thing but it's such a small detail I don't think many people noticed it, I'd like to hear your thoughts if you see this.
thats why eren said he hated her so he can break the loop which he knows about
@@freshkingdior2351 It's apparent at this point that Eren can peek into the future (or past realities) through the paths, so Eren must have chosen the path with the best possible outcome for everyone, and this one happened to be the one where he insults Mikasa, and beats Armin to a pulp.
@@aboody006 yea he saw the other realities and this was the best option hes doing it for everyone but he doesnt have full control but now ever since his teamup wit ymir both him and ymir are in control 1000%
he had no choice it was the only way think about it if u dont go on wit the plan not only your friends but your entire race will get wiped out an to add on too the madness u have a girl u love resetting time over and over because she just wont let u die/rest in peace so u cant be with her no matter how much u want to
This might explain why Ymir was smiling in the last panel of 138. Because Mikasa finally let Eren go.
@@ThisGameizBrokn True, all in all, we'll know in one week hopefully. It was a wonderful ride.
That’s very interesting! My theory was that Ymir had a specific goal of freedom, and every time Mikasa and Eren failed to attain the ultimate goal, their reality was reset (like Groundhog Day) doomed to repeat it again and again and again until they finally were able to get it right and free Ymir. Every time a slightly different choice was made, Mikasa got a headache, and the dreams were visions of their many failed realities before. Since the attack Titan has time abilities, I think it makes sense.
That makes so much sense, it would also explain satisfied look on Ymir's face when Eren and Mikasa kissed, as in 'mission complete'.
I wonder if that’ll be explained in the last chapter (assuming if you’re correct). There’s so much to explain with one chapter I feel like we’re going to have to interpret a lot of shit at the end kinda annoying but I believe it’ll be fine simply because Isayama is a genius storyteller.
I actually don't think so. See when owl was going to give the titan he said: you have to do it to save Armin and Mikasa, then saying: huh? Whose memories are those I wonder. It was all written since the start, it had to happen and so freedom was a ironical term coming from Eren the fated ragnarok.
If this is truly what the writer had in mind then this would be shittier than pulling a black zetsu lol
I just wished they explained that in the manga.
Damn, seeing Jean dying was heartbreaking. That hero could've stayed in Paradise and just move up the ranks and have a wife and kid as he daydreamed of before Hanji came along... That man was a real Scout till the end.
Jean is simply AWESOME, no other word for him honestly, great character, sad death, but I will also include Connie which was such a tragic character that always tried to smile
There were both great characters and soldiers till the end ✊ 💔
@@MangaHorse Ikr I wanted to say something about Connie as well but tbh he didn't hit me as hard as Jean did because when I first saw the panel of them turning into Titans I thought of Jean and his development and how he could've avoided this fate so easily. Connie had pretty much nothing to lose and has ended up the same exact way as his parents. I really like Connie and I am ashamed that I don't have much to say about him. 😅
Think about it this way
The reason we don’t feel for Connie is because his pain was never in the center of things and he always kept smiling while in reality he lost his parent, 2 brothers, and his entire family and village in one day, and 4 years later also his best friend
While he NEVER complained or cried about his family
If you think about it, he lost everything but still didn’t lose his mind...and you know that in a different anime guys like connie that lose their families often lose their minds and become antagonists themselves, and from that aspect Connie is an extremely strong person, it’s a shame the story didn’t show it more, but I guess you can’t show everything 🤔
@@MangaHorse Damn you're right, though there were some instances where Connie almost lost his mind, such as he tried to feed Falco to his mother Titan, and went berserk and shot Samuel multiple times in the face.
Connie was always the happy one (well 2nd happy one, no one beats Sasha) and yet he has every reason not to.
Though still it made sense for him to go stop Eren, becuase he at least had morals and also had nothing to lose.
Yes you are right, he is not perfect, and that moments were part of his character development
But the fact that he was torn about that after, and that he understood that doing those things won’t bring back his mother, that is what makes Connie to be mentally strong 💪
I think the long dream Eren had as a kid was the reality that Eren lived through. Just before he died he sent his memories back to see if he can change the future again, and in doing so we have the timeline of attack on titan that we have been following now.
hmm that is an interesting idea!
My jaw dropped-
I too thought the same! Its because when Eren in the other timeline passed on, Mikasa said "See you later...Eren" and that same scene played again in S1E1 when child Eren woke up under the tree.

Wow when you said "stupid edit", you really meant it🤣🤣 you're a man of your word Manga Horse.
I never joke about stupid 😌
But at least I hope it was stupid “funny” 😆
When Mikasa said that she lost her family again and needed to star over again, she remembered the feeling when her parents got killed. It means that she'll need to start all over emotionally and find new people who will be family to her, which was Eren to that point. It makes complete sense. I remember that being a strong scene when I read the manga.
Yes you are right!
But if there is indeed a possible multiple realities situation here then her words can be looked at in different ways 🤔
@@MangaHorse Yeah, the other scenes suggest that
Great theory! This perception of events adds a lot of depth to Mikasa’s character
Definitely! There is a chance Mikasa is going to be the “big thing” of AoT

I agree!
poor Mikasa :(
@@MangaHorse I just subbed. Your AoT videos are so fun to watch (:
Yay thank you so much! 🤗
I really appreciate it 🙏
Mikasa 🥺
😔😔
I think I get this now. Basically, Mikasa’s choices are basically altering time itself. In the alternate reality, her wanting to see Eren more worsened her mother’s condition. Then when that desire went away, Eren died. Once she refused Eren’s death as part of reality, then Eren saved her in Titan form.
And the consequence for this, is that Eren started the rumbling. In a sense, Mikasa is the main character of AOT. And her choices, affect everything.
I also believe that Eren and Mikasa are most likely in a time loop, as we see them waking up from a “long dream” constantly, and it always happens at the beginning of Attack on Titan, raising the idea that Attack on Titan is a time loop, which he explains with the alternate realities theory.
just a theory
Thanks man 😁
I loved this chapter. So heartbreaking. Personally I think that the cabin scene was Eren talking to Mikasa via Paths, telling her that he loves her, but she has to let him go.
well I think everything is possible at this point, so yes you can be right about that
This analysis was amazing, i loved how you included the ova episode too. Personally, this chapter was sad and full of emotion, but it hurts that jean never confesses to mikasa and how falco left gabi and my feelings were all over the placeeee. Also, i must ask what is your favourite ship if its not mikasa and eren? i dont really ship anyone but i believe armin and eren are platonic soulmates
Her smile and his expression killed me. I cry everytime I see them :(
I’m with you
The ending broke me a little bit 😭
Very interesting theory and sharp analysis as usual.👏🏼
Thank you so much!
I’m really happy you liked it, and Have more to say about the science behind it in my next video 😊
Actually, Isayama is an insane manga writer, he needs a physisist and yeah we too after watching the final episode, I am crying. I love Isayama, don't misunderstand, I love his manga, he is like a grandfather
Adding subtitles for people who might not understand your accent ? Man (horse) you are a true hero, hope your channel grows 10 times the size

I just want everyone to be able to be part of my videos and discussions
And if they help even a little then I’m happy 😊
If Ymir doesn’t bring back Eren the same way she brought back Zeke then we’re gonna need an explanation as to why Ymir is now opposing Eren. There seem to be quite a lot of plot holes that need clearing up, like where did Levi get that thunder spear from and how did he know Eren was in the mouth?
Levi knew he was in the mouth because Mikasa told him
And she obviously knew like I said in the video 😊
About the other things you raise good questions, I will address some of them in my next video
isnt it erens decision? him and mikasa both seem to have lived those timelines although im not too sure how much he remembers dureing the timeline maybe he only learns of the other timelines at certain points dureing the story so mikasa must act or do certain things to even ensure eren will get far enough to ever remember any of it, both kind of working in tandom to hopefully free the eldians and stop the conflict once and for all but in order to do so eren must die (as theyve lived every other outcome to no avail). I dont think that will kill the symbiote titan worm thing but i think it will have to shrink in order to attempt to infect anyone else now..... if it even can shrink, leading to its demise and the freeing of the eldians from the paths alowing them to rest in peace and somehow reincarnate ymir..... which is a bit of a stretch imo but the child could just be named in honor of her or the other ymir and just before the worm thing is killed we see a happy eren in the paths and then give it a hundred years theyll be useing tanks etc to wage war anyway, then whats left of the worm thing leaves the planet thinking fuck this i aint ready for nukes lol
Levi knew Eren was in the mouth bc Mikasa told him, which was either a memory thing or a callback to her fight agasint Reiner
Your forgetting prior to becoming titans Connie and Jean, even Armin were loaded with thunder spears while fighting for their lives against the past shifters Eren had running around, I mean I think it’s safe to say they probably grabbed them as Levi was yelling at everyone aside from Jean and Connie to get on Falco before they turned into mindless titans. Also, There is one more chapter left so how do we come to this conclusion that Ymir is going against Eren ? just because mikasa chopped his head off doesn’t mean a thing, how about waiting until the last chapter drops to make that assumption lol some of y’all want Eren to win (even though nobody is gonna win) so bad you’re nit picking at the smallest things, RELAX and just let the story play out 😭
@@lm4733 Nah, pointing out major plot holes and bad writing isn’t nit picking, it’s that mentality that allows artists to become lazy with their work because they know their consumer base doesn’t care about the quality of their product anymore.
so i wonder if the butterfly dream could also be interpreted the butterfly effect in mikasa’s case, where in a timeline where even just a single butterfly dies it could change the entire future. maybe that’s what her headaches really are the “effect” of making a different choice flooding her mind with all the different paths. i know the butterfly dream is a different philosophy, but it’s still cool to think of
Oh yes, You can also apply the butterfly effect as small changed in one place that leads to bigger ones across time in a different place
For example, Ymir frees some pigs
And 2000 years later there is a major world conflict that leads to where we are today (with a lot of events in between of course)
This video was more philosophical, but I will talk about science in my next one 😊
That's beautiful. mikasa's love for eren is soo deep and pure. it is not obssesed, but it is not that easy because she would never give up on loving eren. she is so strong, extremely strong to love someone that much unconditionally
Honestly I was never a fan of their ship, but I was always a huge fan of Mikasa and I always knew she will get her moment
And this indeed was beautifully sad, the scene with Eren was chilling AND heartbreaking
I really loved that chapter and I can’t wait to see what is waiting for us at the last chapter 🤩
I thought Mikasa apoligized to her mom because of her death or somthing,your perception came to clear it all it somehow reminded me of the "Ereased" anime.thank you
Oh I loved erased, I just wish it was a bit longer
And yes you are right to be confused about the scene in the anime because it was extremely random
But in the manga we can clearly see it 4 times, and each time her mom gets worse and Grisha and Eren need to come more often
The last time it is so bad that Grisha tell her she needs yo move next to him, that happened “surprisingly” after Eren stopped visiting her
And that was the only time shown in the anime, so anime watchers had no reference to compare it too
@@MangaHorse that whole OVA(anime) felt like a psychedelic hallucination xD
your theory is probably the last theory I'll be watching for AOT manga UwU
You really Explained it very well....I really wanted to hear about the connection between chapter 138 and Mikasa's lost girl OVA ..This video was Awesome..👍
I dont know where it was from but there was a myth that sometimes two people are connected by the "red thread of fate" like the movie Your Name. Eren's scarf can be that thread connecting him and Mikasa through time.
That is actually a very interesting idea, and it goes well also with the “sisters of faith” from greek mythology 🤔
@@MangaHorse how mindblowing would it be to find out that this manga (who feeds on the flesh of its readers) is actually a love story? 😲🤯
Yes, finally you upload this...I'm confused as hell bcuz of that dream (my small brain couldn't comprehend what just happened)
Oh that was a very complicated chapter, I did my best to explain it, but I will have another video that will also explain Mikasa 😊
@@MangaHorse so our actual MC are Mikasa?? Imagine getting spoon-fed almost every chapter the world are evolving around Eren to only getting a slap in the face that version of Eren is just an illusion...Damn you Isayamaaaaa
That is a nice way to look at it, but yes, I think Mikasa is actually the “big thing” in all of this mess
I have more vids coming about her, so we will try to understand more before the final chapter
I really appreciate your deep analysis panel by panel, it helps to connect the points
My pleasure 🙏
I’m just happy my videos are helpful and fun 😊
Yeah, this madman Isayama put so many little details in his work, it's really amazing. In chapter 123 it's clear that Eren doesn't hate Mikasa, that he is so fucking sad because of the future events, because of how much pain he gonna deal to his friends, because he knows that this boy gonna die from the rumbling.
And even if Eren doesn't love Mikasa as much as she loves him, then at least he cares about her. But after his question "What am I to you?" they are interrupted by other guys and he says an insanely important phrase that Mikasa doesn't understand, he says "Perfect timing". But why? Because he somehow knows (through "paths"? Ymir? connection to Mikasa's unique combined bloodline of two noble clans?) that this is the moment where her "false memory" ("long dream") from chapter 138 took a different route in the future events. This is why he cries in first chapter, because of their imposible future together, but he couldn't figure it out at that moment.
I hope Isayama will clarify in chapter 139 how or why their connection between Mikasa's "false memories" ("long dream") and Eren's "real memories" happened. And I also hope that my crazy theory that I have about her combined bloodline and headaches is somewhat correct.
This mad genius Isayama created very fucking sad love story about separation of two people, at least from Mikasa's point of view. It's weird as hell of how I feel so broken and satisfied at the same time because of Mikasa's great character development. I think this is one of the saddest and best love stories.
Isayama really know how to "torture" people. In a good way of course, in a way of a great writer.
And I think AoT definitely doesn't have different timelines, timeloops or universes. Maybe it's just about Mikasa's unique combined bloodline. And I have a crazy theory about it. If you want I can explain.
Pls explain
@@Bolypius This is only my interpretation and I can be wrong, but I think and hope that it's somewhat correct.
This will be long, but I will try to connect all clues which Isayama left.
So first of all I found something important. In early chapters of manga Isayama point out that Mikasa have headaches, espesially in chapter 5 after situation with a cart. But what's important in this moment is that we have a girl, which saluted to Mikasa after her help. And because of that Mikasa feels headache and asking herself why I remember it now (memory about parents, we will back to this later). So who this girl and why Mikasa have a headache? This is a girl from chapter 109 (!!!) which Mikasa put behind bars. And what happend next? They are talked about Eren and girl saluted to Mikasa again and... because of that Mikasa feel headache again and she saw "Tatakae!" moment! BUT WHY!? Where is a connection to trigger of this headache? It is chapter 126 when Mikasa take back her scarf from that girl and she told Mikasa very important thing about conversation with Eren about her. Eren wanted this girl to THROW THIS SCARF AWAY (and this is not because he hate Mikasa, we know that this is MASSIVE bullshit). What it remind you? Yes, chapter 138 and Mikasa's "long dream" in which Eren says to her "THROW THE SCARF AWAY... And be free... Forget about me..." and then "dream" ends. But Mikasa deny to forget him and put her scarf on (damn, this moment hit me hard and then this kiss... damn, this madman Isayama) and says that Eren is in the mouth (!!!). But HOW she know this?
So, what I'm trying to say with that? We have something like this:
Headaches through chapter 5 --> chapter 109 --> chapter 126 --> chapter 138 = chapter 5 --> chapter 138 = memories of the future (!!!) or it can be reversed like world map in AoT, 138 --> 5 (Mikasa's headache about parents). So like this we are back to chapter 5. And, unlike anime, what we have there? Mikasa have a conversation with her ASIAN mom about the mark under the bandages (!!!) and also about having a child (hmm... last frame of manga will be with child too, hmm...). So why this mark was established so early in the plot? Only to make Mikasa somekind of princess? NO WAY! This is pointless for future events, especially after genocide. It's all because this mark is important for another thing (!!!) what takes us to chapter 107 about Hizuru, Azumabito and all this stuff 100 years ago BEFORE WALLS. But why this is so important? Why shogun was in good relationship with Fritz? Maybe because this is a plot twist for chapter 139 or maybe it's not, but I have an idea about it, which takes us to another chapters - 65 and 63!
So, chapter 63 has a conversation between Levi and Mikasa about Kenny's and their powers awakening (and this is has nothing to do with the Ackermans "hosts", this is just a lie invented by Eren, if read the manga carefully, it becomes clear). So what about their ability of "knowing what to do next"? It's like spider-sense, right? But HOW? Experiments with titans abilities (!!!) (we know this from Zeke's conv with Eren). But most important chapter in all of this is chapter 65, which called "Dreams and Curses" by the way (damn... that's brilliant, you are a madman Isayama). And what we have there? Kenny's grandpa said very important thing about several noble bloodline clans - "The MEMORIES of people from these MINORITY BLOODLINES were NOT affected by the KING" (!!!). While most of the bloodlines obeyed, who turned their back on Fritz? Right! Only TWO, the ASIAN clan and Ackermans. But why did the good relationship with the Hizuru shogun turn against Fritz? And why was it necessary to get rid of the Ackermans family guard? Because he can't CONTROL their memories. But WHY he can't?
Is it all starting to make sense?
So, here a crazy thing begins, get ready.
Which titans abilities most powerful and intersect with this story? It's "memories of the future" of the Attack titan and "memory manipulation" of the Founding titan! So, think about it like this, what if...
Ackermans = experiments with abilities of the Attack titan --> they "know what to do next" or have something like spider-sense;
Asians (or, more likely, only royal branch of them) = experiments with abilities of the Founding (!!!) titan --> ability to create memories or by another words "dreams" (!!!).
And this is where Mikasa becomes very important to the plot! Why? Because she is a combination of this "powers", she's an Ackerman and asian at the same time. This is HOW Isayama made her so special and crucial to the plot. So maybe this is how she creates this "dreams" by her Founding titan connection and have this headaches because of the Attack titan. What I mean is that no matter how hard she trying to escape from reality by creating this "dreams" she knows that Eren is gonna DIE and because of it even in "false memories" she can't save him. And also this means:
Eren (The Attack titan and the Founding titan) Ymir and her "paths", CURSE of Ymir, Mikasa's "long DREAM" (chapter 1 for Eren = chapter 318 for Mikasa) Mikasa (abilities of this titans) = title of chapter 65 "Dreams and Curses" (!!!).
I hope this all makes sense.
DAMN, this madman Isayama are fucking great writer. Put so many details into his work just to tell an insanely sad love story of the separation between two people who are not able to be together because of the cruel world and their fate.
"This is a cruel world, and yet so beautiful... I'm sorry, Eren, I can't give up. If I die now, I won't even be able to remember you." (Mikasa Ackerman)
Isayama, you are a genius madman, you can finally open your goddamn sauna, because now you have an ocean of tears to do it.
Fuck, this definitely feels cruel... but yet so beautiful.
Fuckin love this dude...
@@-MrTwister- amazing explanation my dude! Really Good job... I actually have something in mind about how mikasa might have some sort of founding Titan ability since the Ackermans are immune to memory manipulation (by founding Titan) but u placed everything together :D
@@Ericmatcha After chapter 138 I felt uneasy and spent days racking my brains trying to figure out what I had missed. And then bam, I remembered Lost Girls part, I began to search and analyze, along the way remembering moments with Mikasa, as if I was following a path of bread crumbs.
And at some point, this all came together in my head and I felt such satisfaction that I probably realized what Isayama did with Mikasa's character. If chapter 139 or Isayama himself later does not clarify the situation with Mikasa, then this will be my personal interpretation of what happened. After all, this was the first character he came up with. It is also interesting that she is drawn first at the very beginning of the manga and on page 13. I could not resist after episode 5 of the first season and started reading the manga from the very beginning. And that frame on page 13 made it clear to me that it might be more Mikasa's story than Eren's to some extent, that it would be VERY important. And I was even a little upset that this dream moment was not included in the anime. But on the other hand, this is even good, it will be interesting to see the reaction of people, their understanding of what happened.
I hope that MAPPA will do everything right and beautifully in the last episode, that they will perfectly edit the moment from chapter 318, somehow linking it with the very first episode, then after "Why are you crying?" (chapter 1) episode will rewind everything from that scene to a moment with a kiss and make only anime audience blow their heads off.
Same thing in real life: every choice we make, moves us to another reality, there's a reality where this morning you ate another breakfast, we're constantly shifting realities.
Hey Manga horse, long time no see. Are you doing well???
Hope you come soon with mind blowing video. Can you provide us an estimate date for Next video??
reiner is not called the plot armor titan for nothing.
No doubt 💪
Other animes: *gives plot armor to a character just so they don't die*
Isayama: *gives plot armor to Reiner so he will suffer even more* **SUFFERING GO BRRRR**
Poor Reiner 🥺
I'm Patiently Waiting for the New video about the ending chapter. I've checked everyday 😢 lol
Bro! I've been saying this theory to other fans and they just shake me off.You're also right about them being connected beyond time and space. Maybe Eren knows this and also knows the only way to escape the loop is for him to die and perhaps break the titan curse. I liken Eren to the Alpha and Mikasa to the Omega. Hence Mikasa kissing Eren at the end of his life in both realities.
That is a nice idea and also a possible scenario no doubt 🤔
Although I personally want to believe Mikasa is somehow the “big deal” here, and not Eren or even Ymir
I think it’s a twist a lot of people won’t expect, especially since Mikasa was always a quiet character
@@MangaHorse Exactly! Like what you said about the knives. What if, there's also a reality where she didn't pick one up. So maybe she's steering this reality and her headaches are guiding her. Probably only saying this because I want them to be together but, when Eren finally got the hang of ODM gear. Everyone was commenting on his eyes and what they were saying but Mikasa said "No, they're saying he doesn't have to leave me". Maybe in another reality he didn't make training.
Ymir escaped to another world which is the paths and Mikasa is currently doing something similar with her mind escaping to worlds that have what she wants. Also I don't think we ever hear Ymir's birth surname as Fritz is from taking King Fritz's name, so maybe it was Ymir Ackerman?
That would be pretty cool if her surname was Ackerman, but we learned that the ackermans are actually byproducts of titan research, which means they came much after...that is of course if we haven’t been lied too by Zeke 🤔

imma save this video for when chapter 139 comes out in a week or so. you're a genius man! i've had similar theories like this but you're a genius. yours is much more detailed. lol. i've been thinking about alternate realities since that flashback episode of how her parents died. she did mention something about why am i remembering this now during her monologue. and your're right. she used to say those things a lot- the i've seen this before. it seemed weird at the time but with your theory, this makes sense.
Oh wow thank you so much ☺️
I’m actually planning to deliver another video before the last chapter, so I hope you’ll enjoy it as well
I may be twice as right, or twice as wrong 😅
But in any case I promise my video will be interesting 🧐
@@MangaHorse will be looking forward to it! 🙂
There's only a few OVA's in animes that make sense and AOT has to be one of them.
Absolutely
And actually there are more OVA to aot, and except for 2 which are mostly fun, every other OVA has a purpose and a part in the events and in the understanding of the story
I thought of the same theory and agree completely with you. I think this should be canon but chapter 139 man....
Nice breakdown 👌 love your theories and how you connect to Lost Girls and FNA. Never thought ED1 would be important.
138 is probably my favorite chapter, especially as an Eremika shipper lol even read it 4 times. I do believe in the alternate multiverse theory. Isayama did say the ending would bitter sweet. My guess is the rest of the world is doomed, not really buying the "Ymir will turn everyone back to normal" theory. Feels to safe for Isayama style.
I think the world is doomed and Mikasa's kiss will transport her and everyone to the universe where Hange and the rest of the deceased scouts are.
I'd like to believe Isayama will probably explore in the last chapter multiverse with Goth Mikasa, and possibly Junior High.
Wow the quality of the video the editing the voice quality the subtitles the explanation omg 10/10 you deserve more support maan ❤️
Thank you so much!! That is so nice if you and I really appreciate it 🤗

Thank you again my friend for all the support 🙏
It was beyond worth waiting one week for your release and listen to the entire thing.
The possibility of multiple parallel realities existing one beside another, or them being in a cycle of existence is beyond mindblowing. Not to mention that our "free will" is also not so free as we'd like to think. It's more like biologically and sociologically causal will that gives the illusion of being free.
If that's the case all efforts of having free will and "being free" are in a sense futile.
But regardless of Zeke's argument on what LIFE is, all we can do is what Armin told back to Zeke. Enjoy the moments we have and live as mindfully as possible.
One question: How does Mikasa's ability to remember previous realities come together with Ymir calling the supernatural shots?
Can Ymir transcend not only time but realities as well?
! chapter to wrap everything up. I can't wait, but also I'm enjoying having to wait.
It's the last time we wait.
“It’s the last time we’ll wait” 😳
I know this, but still I still can’t process it 😔
And thank you so much for watching, I’m so happy you enjoyed it
About your question, honestly by now it could only be a guess on how Isayama will choose to take this
He could take it to a very insane place, like some sort of simulation, or to even a more crazy direction which I will talk about in the next chapter 😉
I really want it to be more on the science side and less fantasy
I mean, after he literally introduced evolution, he can’t go on downgrading to some god figure, I mean he can but it will look awkward in my opinion
What I mean is that Mikasa should have a very good reason for why she is able to do what she does
And also, there seems to be some sort of connection between Mikasa Eren and Ymir, what brings me to ask why Armin was pushed aside, or does he still have something else to reveal
Also, Zeke’s titan should be transferred to someone else, and I still don’t understand why Isayama “gave “ Annie’s titan the ability to inherit titan powers by eating different titans, if we are not going to use this info
Sorry I kinda went all over the place 😅
I will try doing 2 more videos on the last chapter and this one as well
Maybe I will even go live on CZcams and we can have a discussion
I need to think about it 🤔
@@MangaHorse Not only you, I'll think about it too, or at least try.
That might be something you already know, but "Mikasa" sounds just like Spanish "Mi casa" which means "My home".
Yes I sometimes make fun of that 😊
Although Mikasa is named after a japanese WW2 battleship with the same name
But it would be cool if Isayama thought of the spanish meaning as well 🤔
I think the founding titan allowed Eren to create these alternate realities in paths for Mikasa so they could be together in a different reality. Her Ackerman blood resists the founder's ability to erase memories, thus the headaches and her remembering some small details.
I was eagerly awaiting this. Thanks MangaHorse! Always love to hear your thoughts!
Thank you so much 😊
And as you can see I had a lot to talk about this time 😅
I hope you’ll enjoy it 🙏
@@MangaHorse just finished the video. I genuinely did not expect to hear talk about other possible realities. Loved your analysis
Somehow as we near the end of Attack on Titan I have more questions than answers and now I'm wondering what's in store for us when the final chapter comes.
This channel always has the most amazing in-depth discussion about every chapter just like we AOTtards love❤️🌟
Thank you so much
Lucky for us I’m a huge titan nerd 🤓
So you can always find unique discussions on my channel 🤗
I love your accent.Don’t overthink it .We all have our own accent and your accent makes you unique but more importantly whenever I see your videos it makes me happy cause it shows people from all background watches this masterpiece 💙🤍
Thank you so much my friend I really appreciate it 🙏
And you are right, everyone has his/her differences
I just try to make my videos as accessible as possible for everyone 😊
I don't think those memories are from another reality because; If Eren and Mikasa would run away at that night; Eren would never be at the War of Shiganshina and never meet with Zeke to reach for the Paths. If Eren wouldn't go to the paths; He would never manipulated his father aka Grisha and Grisha wouldn't get the Founding Titan power from Frieda Reiss. Everything would be different if Eren and Mikasa would run from the Paradis group at that night. It's the just ideal of Mikasa and Eren saw this from by Paths or Founding Titan ability.
I completely understand what you are saying, and I am going to address this super confusing issue in my next video
But i will just say there is a scientific explanation that will explain this, but it is a very complicated one, so I’m trying to figure out how to explain it and still make it interesting for everyone to watch 😊
I had this concern too, but I might have found an idea that solves it. I don’t know the physics of it, or if there’s a term for it. But essentially, there’s only one reality. There will always be a version of Eren that goes to the paths. You’re pointing out the paradox, but it’s actually this paradox that makes it plausible for Eren to still get powers. A paradox has no beginning or end, it’s a circle/ cycle. It has to happen for the story to work. Regardless of which version of Eren we’re watching, there’s always a version of him that gets to Zeke. It just so happens that we got to see that version of Eren throughout the series.
It’s hard to understand, but just don’t try to put time in a linear position. The past, present, and future are happening at the same time. Different realities are happening at the same time. While a version is living with Mikasa, a different version is fighting her.
That is pretty much correct, and I will explain the physics as simple as I can in my upcoming video 😊
@@berenice9000 I understood what you said but I don't think that's possible because there is only one chapter left and adequate preparation has not been made by Isayama. If he wanted to take things that way, he would have announced Mikasa's dream at least 5-6 chapters before and prepared the finale accordingly. But he waited to draw till one chapter before final chapter and that means he didn't decide to end whole series from this way and he is not going to mention it more. Also, when Chapter 138's drafts published, we clearly saw the sentences that wrotten by Isayama that describes what is going to be drawn in those Eremika panels. He was telling that what happened would draw Mikasa as her 'ideal'. That means, those things that we saw between Eren and Mikasa are just Mikasa's imagination from what happens if she would confess her feelings to Eren before. On the other hand, even if we think things will not happen from that way, he may even attribute it to Ackerman bond, because he has already touched on this issue on OVA's. Did you read the Blue Butterfly theory about Mikasa? I think most meaningful theory is that because; It's a symbolic thing in Japanese culture and it describes "If you cannot tell if you are dreaming, you cannot understand what is real because you will not be sure of reality," It's much meaningful than the theory about other realities, I think.
@@metlevser8658 you could be correct, but I still see it as a possibility. All he’d have to do is outright show different versions of these two characters and explain how they got to this point. He never actually says “this is a paradox,” we have to figure that stuff out with our own critical thinking. I’m not so sure he’d be the type to wrap up an epilogue and show Paradis’ college years lol. He could spend majority of the last chapter focused on how it started. I feel like Eren’s perspective unlocks a lot of answers . And the Ackerman thing that you mentioned, would also need more focus attached to it if it were true, so your idea is on the same boat. Can it be covered in one chapter? If it’s a dream, how does Mikasa have access? Why did she get the headaches beforehand?
Even if I don't get my Yeagerist happy ending I still love this series and it will go down as one of the greatest of all time no doubt.
No doubt, I think AoT will become one if the big ones, it’s already no.2 on MyAnimeList
And I think that with time more people will hear about that from friends and the fandom will actually keep growing as new fans will be introduced to the show
@@MangaHorse I also think that future manga writers will def be taking inspiration and notes from Isayama and how he managed to make his MC so dynamic and complex. He has set a new bar for your typical shonen/seinen protags. I mean hell, it takes balls to make your main character commit genocide. Especially for such a big and popular series like this. Isayama sure isn't afraid to step on our souls and heart strings and it is that risky not playing it safe type of writing that made this series such a hit.
Tf is a yagerist
@koro sensei its when eren kills everyone outside the walls
@@topshelf5032 yeagerists are eren's supporters
Another amazing video!
Proud to be a fan of this channel
Oh wow that’s a huge compliment
Thank you so much! And I’m so happy you like it 🙏
And get ready for my next video where I will take the science approach...and then things will start getting REALLY crazy... trust me 😉
The accent is Israeli. 100% Also, your English is superb! Kol Hakavod
Hehe Toda Raba (Thank you so much)🙏
And yes, this is 100% israeli accent no doubt 😊
You’re from Israel, MH?
Yes I am 😊
Hmm I never hide it 😊
If people ask me I always tell them 🤗
Shalom!!!
This helped me understand things so much better, thanks for a great analysis! It also makes me feel less bitter about the tragic ending, especially if it means that they really did get to live out his last 4 years together.
Thank you so much! I’m so happy you like my idea 😃
There will be another video further explaining this issue and also time loops in attack on titan. And of course my last chapter review which is on the way as well. 😊
There is Nothing wrong with Your Accent. Thanks for the Videos
Thanks you so much for saying that 😊
I really appreciate your support 🙏
I agree i watch all his videos without subtitles great videos as always
I really appreciate it! 😃
I just want my videos to be as accessible as possible for everyone
And I know m accent can be a bit rough for some people, but it’s awesome to know that people can understand be fine also without subtitles 🙏
dude, this was a great explanation for the dream of mikasa and eren, best one yet.
Oh wow thank you so much! It means a lot to me knowing think my ideas are original, I really appreciate it 🙏
There is a follow up video for this one coming soon...and I promise it’s going to be crazy and also very interesting 😉
Thank you again for watching and letting me know your thoughts 🤗
I really like this. I enjoyed your theory! 😮
Since Eren keeps dying and she can't take it anymore then she decided to end it her way? Is that what you mean?
Then Why is Ymir smiling? Because she thinks that finally Mikasa is the one who end it this time? That she is finally letting go and there won't be another paths to take
thank you so much!
about ymir, I cant say for sure why she is happy simply because we dont know what she actually wants
but I do believe she wanted Mikasa to come to this conclusion and to maybe remember something she once forgot, something she once saw in a long dream she had...and it seems that mikasa does remember something now because she knew exactly where Eren was inside his titan
hopefully the last chapter will answer all, if not most of our questions and at the same time give us an ending that will leave us breath taken and satisfied.
who knows maybe there will be a second story to continue this one depending on how well is plays out
also nice vid man love the accent and all the attention to detain throughout the vid
I really appreciate it my friend, thank you 🙏
And actually there is a spin off story called “before the fall” but yes I see what you mean, Isayama can leave the door open for future developments 🤔
In the last chapter, Eren says Ymir chose Mikasa, maybe it has to do with this because I don't understand what he meant otherwise
I will be discussing this in my upcoming videoC but yes, that was a very confusing chapter no doubt 🤔
Ackerman can't be manipulated. They are free and the only eldians strong enougth to kill the founder.
You sound a bit like Fernando Martinez from Radio Emotion GTA. But i can really understand you and love the way that you explain :)
Yay!! thank you so much for letting me know 🤗
It really means a lot to me knowing People worldwide can understand me.
That was always one of my biggest concerns
You really Worked very hard for this video right? I was waiting eagerly for your video..And it was worth it..!! I was sure that it wasn't just a dream but I was really confused about "Mikasa's ideal or AU thing" But You really explained this very well...I love how Everything is connected in the world of AOT....Now just the last chapter is left..🥺🥺
Thank you so much my friend, and thank you for noticing 🙏
I did work a lot on this video and I’m so happy it helped clear things up
But like I said, that’s not all...
There is even a more crazy video coming that will explain everything with science like no other CZcamsr has done before
Trust me 😉
@@MangaHorse 🤗🤗
You're a really great youtuber! After two videos I instantly subbed. What great analysis and in such a professional manner!!
That is so nice of you! thank you so much for commenting and letting me know, and of course welcome to my channel 🤗
You can expect my future videos to have the same quality and vibe 🙏
Mikasa can experience these alternate timelines because the Founding Titan doesn't affect her memories, no matter how many times Eren resets it. Which makes me think, does Eren finally realize he has to die in order for the time loop to end? What timeline is the current AoT taking place in? Is this the true timeline? How many times did everyone have to die in order to get to this moment? What has Eren truly seen. I have a feeling that there will be no happy ending.
Also, what the hell is that centipede creature!? Please. I need an answer already! 😳
I think the most important question you raised is what is the true reality, or origin world
If some sort of catastrophe happened once that made this all situation, then it must have originated from something
About Eren’s death, I actually believe he died many times, in other realities, and our Mikasa just remembered this at the end, and probably been remembering this over and over many times
Dude I’m not even finished watching but you never cease to blow my mind!!! That ending scenes and the knives ?!?! OMG. I def knew she was “jumping realities” but allll the proof you provided omg omg omg
Thank you so much my friend, I’m so happy you enjoyed it 🤗
And you should enjoy my next one as well, i am going to prove everything I talked about today using science 🧬
Very interesting approach!! Great vid!
still: I don't get the vibe between mikasa and eren, I don't feel their chemistry beyond their familial bond, never have :/
My heart broke because of Jean and Conny, it gets me everytime i think about it :( not been this sad over a fictional death since Fred Weasley
Can't believe this would be it: you're only able to survive if you're something special, a titan shifter, an Ackerman, a royal family member..
I’m with you on that, I always felt Eren and Mikasa are more family than lovers, but I think there is still something we don’t know about, some reason for their connection 🤔
One connection supporting the Mikasa theory is when she tells Armin in the beginning of the series that he has saved her and Eren many times. Armin is confused because he’s always being saved by them, but this could imply that mikasa has already seen him do it in the multiple realities.
The current reality might have been the one that breaks both Eren and Mikasa free. Eren must always goes forward, but Mikasa can choose the direction in which he goes.
Right, that moment really confused Armin, but they didn’t kept on going become all the mess around...Great attack on titan way to cleverly hide little details 👌
Yes finally! I was really looking forward to your review. The lost girls ova is really a great mystery but you have explained it very well. At first, I was thinking that the last panel is Ymir being reincarnated but after chapter 138 and seeing Mikasa's face when she is being hugged by Eren and was asked to forget about him and be free, I think that the baby is Mikasa. There are a lot of theories saying that Eren is the one controlling the timelines, it will be mindblowing if it was Mikasa all along.
thank you so much! I am so happy you liked it :)
and honestly, I would really like the Idea of Mikasa being the big twist of the story
i always loved her and told people she will get her moment...but i didnt expect this kind of moment, so I am extremely happy about it :)
You have such a charming accent, please dont feel embarrassed about it and dont apologize!!
PS: This video helped me SO much! I read that chapter 3 times and still didnt understand what happened, you are amazing at explaining!! I'll def subscribe after this!
What happened brother hope you will get back strong from whatever you are facing good luck.
It could just be a long dream but at the same time a reality of many kinds. Liked this video and I'm now a new subscriber 🤗
Yay thank you so much ☺️
And welcome to my channel 🤗
You could be absolutely right about the dream part, it’s just that I will always prefer the more scientific route, but Of course this is only my personal opinion and I can always be wrong about it 😊
this filled the void for the today’s ep ! cant wait for the next chapt
Happy I could help 🤗
And I promise my next video will also be special
love your videos they have always have new ideas that make me rethink the entire story, get well soon you beautiful horse
Awwww thank you so much, it’s so nice of you to say ❤️
I will be back very soon, and don’t worry, I have much more to talk about 😉
Your theories are so deep 🙇♂️👏👏
Absolutely love them!!
This theory was like Steins gate!!
ohh I love Stein's gate :)
and thank you so much my friend, I'm so happy my crazy Ideas are getting some love
@@MangaHorse Oh I love your reviews and I would like to see more of them on Aot and other anime too !!!
Hey, just wanted to stop by and say that I love your videos. Theyre so well made and some of the best Attack on Titan content out there. I’ve seen in other comments that you’re having health issues. Im Excited for your video on the finale, but I am also hoping your health is better now. Keep up the good work man, well wishes
Thank you so much my friend, I absolutely appreciate your kind words and all the love and support ❤️
Unfortunately that’s true that I’ve been having some hard times lately and It really warms my heart seeing people care about my condition, thank you so much for that 🙏
My condition prevented me from recording, but I’ve never stoped working on content for you, including an extremely long and detailed video about chapter 139, including a new theory of mine that I’m sure a lot of you would love, and of course I also addressed the extra pages we got
I’m doing the best I can to get back on track, and I will return to posting vids regularly very soon
I want to thank you again for your love, concern and patience, It really means the world to me ❤️
YES! I've been looking forward to this!
Thank you!! I really hope you’ll enjoy it 🙏
I'm 100% behind this theory I think it is beautiful and makes me want to read the whole manga again to look for clues! I believe this has all been planned from day 1. Also I think this best explains people still being "alive" in paths, almost like they are between worlds or realities. It's so good to hear a review that is level headed as a lot of the discourse is very toxic atm.
your comment is awesome! and i am so happy my video made you want to check and explore this amazing story from the start :)
and be ready for another video where I will provide a proof to everything I said in this video using science ;)
Bro you need to do a video about the last chapter and the extra pages of the series, I'm really curious about your opinion, I saw a comment of you saying you had some health problems hope you are doing great, I'll be gladly waiting for your opinion about the ending, keep up the good work 💪
Thank you so much for your concerns my friend 🙏
Yes, I do have some health issues but I’m trying to push through it
I never stopped working on videos, and you will get my video including an update of the new panels we got
thank you so much for your patience, I really appreciate it ❤️
Dude finally someone who actually explains what mikasa dream is and the explanation actually makes sence like i could see isiyama going down that road
Thank you so much! It really means a lot to me 😊
I write myself and Also my theories are based on things that I personally would have wanted to see, so knowing you think my idea is close to the level of Isayama...this is a huge compliment for me, thank you so much! 🙏
Also, my next video will make things even more interesting 😉
It has been two months bro
We're still waiting for a new video 😔❤
I know my friend and I am terribly sorry for that
I had some health Issues That prevented me from delivering content 😞
But I never stopped working on my videos, and you will get a really detailed videos including the new panels we just got
Thank you so much for your patience, I really appreciate it 🙏
I couldn't understand why falco screams while taking of to escape the titanization
Honestly me too, but I don’t think it triggered the transformation 🤔
Wow looking back at these chapters I read these in the manga books and always wondered what these moments meant now watching the ovas it made so much sense now
Yes absolutely, the OVA brought together a lot of things
But because the manga is spread throughout so many years, it’s sometimes hard to piece them all together
@@MangaHorse hell i loved the anime because it was my official get me into anime cause it was this show that made me a weeb . and it was the best damn show i couldve asked for. even season one made me read the manga in schools and online . love your theories by the way youre pretty cool dude
I know that I'm late but man I didn't realize that u have health issues & I was wondering where did u go, but I hope u be in a good shape.
Thank you so much for your concern my friend, and I’m sorry I disappeared like that. I just got to the point I really needed to take care of myself before It will get worse and I tend to make a video about it and share it with everyone, but first I will deliver the videos I’ve been working on for the last few months
I promise I’ll be back soon and I’m sorry again for letting you all wait for so long 🙏
AoT just hits me hard. I don't know why. Its just so great. Thanks for this new video! 👍
Same here my friend
I get slapped in my heart each month 😂
thank you for watching and I really hope you enjoyed the video 🤗
This is why anime might end differently
I actually was thinking about this scenario too 🤔
I hope eren is alive some how or will be revived
Well I think Eren will always be alive somewhere & sometime, but I’m not sure he is “our Eren”
Eren hasnt said anything since ch 123, he literally can't be dead, call me high on copium but idc.
I mean since the rumbling started we haven't seen Eren. That head Mikasa cut off looked like a lifeless puppet to me. The tiny bit of view from Eren we've got he was feeling 'out of body and detatched from reality' so I think sadly for the alliance they haven't been fighting Eren at all this whole time. Eren is using the warhammer ability from back on Paradise.
@@SolusLupi I agree but I wanna know if it's not eren how did we see him in his titan is it possible maybe he using the founding titan abillties to make an illusion?
This man deserves more views, that video opened my mind.
oh wow I am so happy to hear that :)
thank you so much for watching my friend, and also for you support!
isayama saying this is only the beginning makes so much sense now another universe will start where mikasa goes through it all again and again isayama is really cruel
Yes he is 😔
But just to clarify, I don’t think the other universes need this one to end in order to exist
I think they are all moving somewhat together and we simply were aware of one of them
So basically there is always Eren and Mikasa...somewhere 😊
